Games 5, 6 & 7- The Paradise Jam

[Reslife4Life]

Gym looks a little better than the Cayman Islands, still not great. It’s gotta be funny to be some of the best players at their level and go play some of the most competitive games of the year in a gym like this

Last week we saw power conference programs play in a ballroom in West Virginia. This arena has to be an upgrade over that.

Yale is struggling to put away Green Bay

One might imagine 8 hours in a plane and the Virgin Island resorts are a distraction for some of these youngsters.

Considering UMass-Charleston game is still going, I'm going to guess the Akron game will start a bit late.

Yale's resume isn't impressive thus far. Their hype is still a carry over from last season, although they will still end up being the class of the Ivy League most likely.

The game just ended.  I'm guessing it will be 30 minutes, which puts us a few minutes before 6:00pm.

I only got to see the closing minutes so nothing to report.

Game starting now....

A bit chaotic and undisciplined on offense, but again we are leading at the first media time out. How many times were we already down ten points a couple of years ago?

We look pretty good when we are not playing giants.

Love that dribble drive layup by Big Stank.

Can we give him a better nickname? Oggi Doggi? 🤣

Nice start.   Let's keep the pedal down.

 

These announcers clearly are not at the venue and have limited knowledge of the teams.

What a stretch by Eric Mahaffey there. 

 

Young is much better this game.

Halligan is in.
